Indian-Lake-2016-Digital-Package

Dear Friend of Indian Lake,

Can’t believe it is time to start planning for the 2016 Nashville Hitmakers event. Again the event will be held at the Indian Lake High School Auditorium. This concert of original hit songs, performed live by the men and women who wrote them, promises to be another evening of great sounds, interesting stories of the song origins, and excellent musicianship. In addition to benefitting the Endowment Fund of the Indian Lake Watershed Project, proceeds will provide funding for the Indian Lake Schools’ Music program.

This year proves to be just a very special concert since it is our FIFTH Annual event. Our headliner will again be the multi-talented Even Stevens, who will be returning to his alma mater to perform for us. Even has lived the ’s life in Nashville, where he moved after his military service. A long-time environmentalist, Even has always enjoyed the history of the Indian Lake area and spending time on the lake whenever he’s able to return to his roots. Just a few of the many songs he’s written that you may know include the 15-million selling “When You’re in Love With a Beautiful Woman” by rock’s Dr. Hook, ’s “” & “Drivin’ My Life Away”, ’s “Crazy in Love” (also recorded by Kim Carnes & ), “Suspicions” by Rabbitt as well as Tim McGraw, and the hit, “Love Will Turn You Around”.

The Songwriter-In-The-Round format includes several of Even’s talented, long-time friends who I’m sure you will recognize. All have won top awards: Grammy, Dove, Billboard and CMA Awards. This highly entertaining show is presented annually in Biloxi, Mississippi for St Jude’s Hospital, in Lebanon, for McClain Christian Academy, and at Songwriter Festivals in Martha’s Vineyard and Key West.

Our Fundraiser will take place at the Indian Lake High School Auditorium on Saturday, July 23rd, 7:00 P.M. For ticket information contact the ILWP office, 937-593-2946, ext. 122. Don’t delay to purchase. After the success of the past 4 years’ concerts, we anticipate a sell out crowd.

MIKE REID

Mike Reid received his degree in music from Penn State University in 1970. But that achievement was considerably overshadowed by his reputation on the football field. At Penn State he was an All-America selection and won the Outland Trophy as the country’s outstanding collegiate lineman. He was the first-round draft pick of the Cincinnati Bengals that year and at the end of his first season in the NFL, was named Defensive Rookie Of The Year. Reid’s success continued when he was voted NFL All-Pro in 1972 and ‘73. In spite of these honors, Reid decided he would rather play music than football for a living. He retired from the Bengals and in 1980, moved to Nashville to pursue song writing. Since 1983 when Mike Reid scored his first number one country hit song“Inside” by Ronnie Milsap, he has composed more than 30 top ten country and pop hits. Twenty-one of those records have gone all the way to number one on the charts. He has been the recipient of ASCAPS’ “Songwriter of the Year” award and one of the many songs that Milsap recorded, “Stranger In My House”, has earned a Grammy award. In addition to Milsap, Reid has had his songs recorded by Bonnie Raitt, Anita Baker, Bette Midler, Prince, George Michael, Nancy Wilson, , Kenny Rogers, Ann Murray, , Alabama, Joe Cocker, , , and Tim McGraw. Among the songs that Mike has composed are “I Can’t Make You Love Me” (Raitt, Michael and Prince), “” and “” (Judd), “In This Life” (Raye and Midler), “Sometimes I Wonder Why” (Baker), “Forever’s As Far As I’ll Go” (Alabama) and “Everywhere” (McGraw). In addition, Reid was commissioned by the Kandinsky Trio of Roanoke, Virginia to write a piece for piano trio and storyteller. The piece, entitled “The Cantankerous Blacksmith,” premiered in the fall of 1995 and continues to be part of the Kandinsky’s touring repertoire. Reid has collaborated with librettist Sarah Schlesinger on a one-act opera commissioned by the Metropolitan Opera Guild and Opera Memphis that explores the myth of celebrity in contemporary American sports. The opera, entitled “Different Fields”, received its premiere in at the New Victory Theatre on Broadway. “Different Fields” has since been produced in Memphis and Nashville and by The Cincinnati Opera. Reid and Schlesinger’s musical entitled “The Ballad of Little Jo” received a 1998 Richard Rodgers Foundation Award and its first production in September 2000 at Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theater won the Joseph Jefferson award for Best New Musical. It has also been produced at the Bridewell Theater in London. Currently it is in development at The Public Theater in New York City. Reid’s composition “Eye of The Blackbird”, a setting for piano trio and soprano of Wallace Stevens’ poem “Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird”, was given its world premiere in Roanoke, Virginia by the Kandinsky Trio and soprano Elizabeth Weigle.

He recalls his father’s collection of country LP’s and the hours he spent listening to the legends: , , , and Jimmie Rodgers, whom Wynn credits as being his primary musical influences.

Dear Corporate Sponsor,

Thank you for your consideration of sponsoring our fifth annual “Nashville Hitmakers” Fund Raiser.

What started out as a siltation problem that was resulting in economic losses for the local business of Russells Point and Lakeview has turned into the most successful watershed project in the state of Ohio. Since the inception of the Indian Lake Watershed Project we have seen the sediment flowing into the lake reduced from 80,000 tons annually to 15,000 tons annually.

Since 1990, the Indian Lake Watershed Project has worked diligently with local landowners to improve water quality. This includes urban homeowners, rural landowners, and farmers. Through education and test plot demonstrations, over 75% of the acres farmed within the watershed have been converted to no-till planting, a tillage practice with great water quality impacts. This implementation alone has been credited for reducing the amount of sediment entering the lake by 80%.

We have worked with many area farmers to encourage the perusal of government funded incentive programs designed to increase conservation practices. To date we have administered over $2.3 million in local, state and federal funding to implement our various programs that have helped to reduce the sediment, pesticides and nutrients from flowing into the lake.

With the accomplishments of the past 25+ years, we have now become victims of our own success. The clarity of the lake has improved to create a new problem, “weed growth”. The sunlight can now filter down toward the bottom of the lake providing the needed sunlight for the weeds to grow. The boaters are now having difficulty with the weeds. They become entangled around the propellers of their motors and, in some instances, cause the motors to overheat resulting in extensive repair bills. To address this issue the Indian Lake Watershed Project in conjunction with Indian Lake Development Corporation, a local civic organization, conducted a fund raising campaign that raised over $127,000 of totally LOCAL funds to purchase a weed harvester. To date the weed harvester has been responsible for the removal of over 1200 cubic yards of aquatic weeds, which has helped alleviate the weed problem during the summer months.

The proceeds from the 2016 Nashville Hitmakers event will benefit the mission of the Indian Lake Watershed Project to continue to “Improve the Water Quality of Indian Lake….One Drop at a Time!”, and the Indian Lake Schools’ Music Department.

Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely,
